I was born in the wake of a terrible war 
My mama used to bake for the kids at the door 
Papa would teach whatever he could 
Preach a little science,
Tell a coupla boys they'd better be good 

Geeks, nerds, awkward dweebs We'd hear it from the kids on the block They'd call us geeks, nerds, awkward dweebs But every day the boss would come around And lay his money down
Picked up a girl just south of the docks Gave her a ride, plus a bagel and lox She was nineteen, I was twenty-two But I was too shy Just to know what to do

Geeks, nerds, awkward dweebs We'd hear it from the kids on the block They'd call us geeks, nerds, awkward dweebs But every week the boss would come around And lay our wages down
Never had street smarts but she treated me well With her kind, gentle, laid back smile Decades later I'm a man in despair And I haven't felt joy in a while, nope-nope I haven't felt joy in a while, nope.

He was born in the wake of a terrible war His mama used to bake for the kids at the door Grandpa would teach whatever he could Preach a little science, Tell a bunch of kids they gotta be good

Geeks, nerds, annoying dorks We'd hear it from the jerks on the net They'd call us geeks, nerds, annoying dorks But every month the boss would come around And lay the money down
Geeks, nerds, annoying dorks We'd hear it from the jerks on the net They'd call us geeks, annoying dorks But every year the boss would come around And lay our bonus down
